Illegal characters in names

we all know that you're not supposed to use %, #, ' or other specialcharacters in places like workspace names, folder names, filenames, etc.

So, knowing that and the fact that Sharepoint will happily let you createfolders and files with these names, what would be the expert's suggestion toa group that already has lots of files and folders with apostrophe's in thename?

In IE you'll get the little erroricon saying "Done, but with errors on the page" and when you look at thedetails, it might show:

Line: 652Char: 150Error: Expected ')'Code: 0

and when you look at line 652 of the source, it'll show something like:
